Life, the Universe and Everything
AKA, a follow-up to my my life sucks and it was even my birthday! post from four days ago.
This is the weekend that followed the Spectacularly Rubbish Week (TM) and I'm pleased to report that it was better.
Quite apart from the gorgeous icon that loves_glamour made for me, things are definitely looking up.
After being rather anti-social for the entire weekend (read, I was all but tied to my desk for four days) I managed to get the Large And Important Report done. This is for a meeting for my thesis that will take place on November 17. This is now All Done and I am mostly satisfied with it. Considering the huge amount of work I did in four days, I should be more than just 'mostly satisfied', but I'm too exhausted now to feel much anyway. I am going to go bed soon (yes, I know it's only 9.05pm) and recover.
However, as I have done the report and can't do any more on it until the meeting, this means that I now have two weeks to do nothing.
Oh, all right, we both know I won't be doing nothing. Instead I shall be Writing Fic. I will try to shoot off my weekly challenge piece tomorrow (I have done the one for last week, but it is tied to this week's, so I want to post them on consecutive days, which can't happen until the second part is done). Then I shall get my Support Stacie story done. It is about half-done and I know exactly where it is going. I just have to sit down and do it. I suspect that will be this weekend's task.
I also have a dance exam on Wednesday week that I must practice for.
I need to start swimming again to try and lose weight. Oh, and I have to cook tomorrow for the rest of the week. And go into the city to drop off hard copies of my Large And Important Report.
Still, at least the major stress it out of the way. If nobody minds, I'm going to bed...
